THE HAUNTED PALACE has many chambers: Poetry, Horror, Aesthetics, Satire, Philosophy, Hoaxing, Romance, Criticism, Farce, Ratiocination, Science... Welcome to the mind of Edgar Allan Poe. ****coming in 2027**** #EdgarAllanPoe #Theatre #Solo

If I could be remembered for one performance, I think I'd like it to be this exercise in understatement... 😉 #folkhorror #humour youtu.be/Yott21NJW6I?si…

“A toddler in Gaza released from Israeli custody has been returned to his family with suspected torture wounds.” Read that again.

Thanks for the share, @Jenkins100Rose 😊

Brazil’s President Lula slams Trump: “We can’t have someone thinking he’s the owner of the world and wakes up in the morning: I'll take Greenland I'll take the Panama Canal I'll take Cuba I'll take Venezuela I’ll bomb Iran Countries have sovereignty. And it must be respected.”

@LindseyGrahamSC @POTUS Disingenuous dolt. You're fooling no-one... including yourself.

Just spoke to @POTUS about our European allies’ unwillingness to provide assets to keep the Strait of Hormuz functioning, which benefits Europe far more than America. I have never heard him so angry in my life. I share that anger given what’s at stake. The arrogance of our allies to suggest that Iran with a nuclear weapon is of little concern and that military action to stop the ayatollah from acquiring a nuclear bomb is our problem not theirs is beyond offensive. The European approach to containing the ayatollah’s nuclear ambitions have proven to be a miserable failure. The repercussions of providing little assistance to keep the Strait of Hormuz functioning are going to be wide and deep for Europe and America. I consider myself very forward-leaning on supporting alliances, however at a time of real testing like this, it makes me second guess the value of these alliances. I am certain I am not the only senator who feels this way.

@Keir_Starmer Resign, spineless lapdog.

I condemn in the strongest terms the overnight Iranian strike on a Qatari gas facility. We are working towards a swift resolution to the situation in the Middle East, in the best interests of the British people – because there is no question that ending the war is the quickest way to reduce the cost of living.

This is the heart of Beirut today. A city that has stood for 5,000 years. Israel is obliterating it — flattening civilian apartment block after apartment block. Not military targets. Civilian homes. Civilian infrastructure. Civilian life.

BOMBSHELL: Iran offered to give away ALL of its enriched uranium during peace talks in Geneva. The British thought it was a credible offer. Hours later, Trump started bombing Iran anyway. The US didn't want peace, they wanted war.

Former UK Ambassador drops a massive truth bomb: Iran was observing the 2015 nuclear deal to the letter. Trump sabotaged it purely on Israeli advice, and the claims that Iran was cheating are absolute lies debunked by the International Atomic Energy Agency.

Netanyahu’s son is allowed to say “from the river to the sea” but Australians in Queensland are not.

BREAKING: After Trump begged Canada to come to his aid in the Strait of Hormuz, Mark Carney announces “Canada will not assist the United States in any of its operations against Iran.”

This is what British complicity in an illegal war looks like.

@LindseyGrahamSC Disingenuous dolt. Hypocrite. You pontificate about morality whilst actively participating in the Fascistic overthrow of democracy in the USA. Time will indeed tell... against you and your poisonous kind.

I was just informed that the Spanish government has permanently recalled their ambassador to Israel. This is hard for me to absorb. Spain is a member of NATO, and the United States and Israel are in joint operations against the Iranian regime who openly calls for the destruction of the Jewish State, attacks against the West, and seeks to purify Islam in its own image. The religious Nazi regime in Iran is the problem, not the Jewish State. I hope Spain’s actions will not encourage the tyrannical, fanatical regime in Iran — that abuses its own people — to hang on. Time will tell. reuters.com/world/middle-e…

Secretary of War Crimes Pete Hegseth: “Terrorist regimes target civilians, we do not.” According to UNICEF the U.S. has already hit 20 schools, 10 hospitals, and killed over 1,300 civilians including 300 children. So by Hegseth’s own logic the U.S. is a terrorist regime.

While they were busy cutting SNAP and health care for working families, Pete Hegseth spent $2 million on King Crab, nearly $7 million on Lobster Tails, and nearly $100,000 on a Grand Piano in the month of September. This is where your taxpayer dollars are going. Isn’t this supposed to be the Administration that’s targeting “waste, fraud, and abuse”?!? Make it make sense.

I have tabled a Bill to require Parliamentary approval for the foreign use of British military bases. We must learn the lessons of the past — and stop our Prime Minister from dragging Britain into another catastrophic, illegal war.

The funeral of 165 girls killed by the US & Israel attack on their school. This should be on the front page of every Western newspaper. Ask yourself: Why isn't it?
